The actual cost of wages and benefits was reimbursed to Focus by NPC. Additionally, NPC reimburses Focus for certain direct expenses incurred on NPC's behalf, and NPC utilized office space in Focus' facilities at no cost.

MARRIAGE (www.focusonthefamily.com/marriage) While the very definition of marriage is debated, couples everywhere continue to face the challenge of building, strengthening and preserving strong marriages. Our Marriage ministry leverages a biblical vision for marriage to help couples prepare a solid foundation for marriage, strengthen their marriage, and save their marriage in crisis. PARENTING (www.focusonthefamily.com/parenting, www.pluggedin.com) It's impossible to estimate the number of letters we've received over the years from parents thanking Focus on the Family for helping them raise their children. Our ministry has long been known for its parenting resources, and the Parents ministry team forges into the 21st century helping parents guide their familes through difficult times, raise healthy and resilient children, and pass on a thriving faith to those children.

GOVERNMENT AND PUBLIC POLICY Now more than ever, we at Focus on the Family recognize the need to make our voices heard in the public square. Protecting life, marriage and religious liberties are among the front burner issues that impact the family. In a nation where individual "rights" increasingly trump biblical truth, abortions continue to be performed at alarming rates. On a larger scale, a world unschooled in the value of premarital abstinence is fraught with diseases like AIDS. Our Government and Public Policy outreach addresses these issues and more through a number of venues. In-house experts grapple with contemporary social issues and then produce educational and motivational resources for the Focus audience. Family News In Focus Online (www.citizenlink.com/category/radio-news/) The Family News In Focus (FNIF) website contains on-demand audio of our radio reports.

Written and edited by some of the country's most knowledgeable family advocates, the resources featured here are designed to educate and energize concerned citizens within religious, political, educational and activist spheres working to apply Christian principles to the struggles that face our nation. Citizenlink (www.citizenlink.org/) Citizenlink Web site provides a biblical perspective on national and local news as well as offer techniques for grassroots activism. The Citizenlink daily email, created by the Public Policy staff, offers a Christian perspective on significant current events and legislation, as well as "Action items" that offers resources for further involvement. The Parsonage (www.parsonage.org) The website was created to come alongside pastors as they endeavor to serve the Lord in these most difficult days. The mission is to facilitate spiritual restoration and renewal for ministry families through resources and services that will assist in bringing balance to their personal and professional lives.Online Ministries
THRIVING FAMILY (http://www.thrivingfamily.com/) The Media Publishing Group launched Thriving Family, a full-size, newsstand-worthy parenting, marriage, and family magazine, in the fall of 2009 and mails 300,000 copies of this 60 page bimonthly publication. The purpose of Thriving Family is to provide and reinforce Focus on the Family's core marriage and parenting message to the bull's-eye audience on a regular basis and to inspire and equip families. A complementary website was also launched to provide additional access and reinforcement of the Thriving Family vision. FOCUS ON THE FAMILY CITIZEN MAGAZINE (www.citizenlink.com/citizen-magazine/) Focus on the Family Citizen is a 32-page, four-color, monthly newsmagazine issued 10 times a year. It seeks to inform readers about how God is working through faithful believers to display His redemptive power in issues such as abortion, religious liberty, homosexual activism, and sex education. During the year ended September 30, 2009, Focus on the Family made a strategic decision to step away from direct-to-teen ministries and to put more emphasis on our ministry to teen's parents. The assets of the youth magazines Brio, Brio & Beyond, and Breakaway were sold to KOR Ministries, a 501(c)(3) ministry specifically designed to reach young people. During the year since the sale, KOR Ministries did not utilize these assets in ministering to teens and these assets have since been returned to Focus on the Family as specified in the original agreement.Periodicals

An emphasis on Christian values and cognitive development makes this an ideal resource for our youngest readers. PASTOR TO PASTOR CD AUDIO SERIES This resource is especially designed to meet the specific needs of busy pastors and church leaders. Pastor to Pastor is a quarterly audio series featuring interviews with leading pastors and Christian leaders on important topics for those in ministry. Hosted by Rev. H.B. London Jr., a respected senior pastor for over 30 years, numerous guests offer their solid biblical insights on topics such as finances, parenting stages, burnout, suffering, conflict, personal devotions and restoration. One hundred two editions have been produced since 1992 and are now available online for listening or downloading. PASTOR'S WEEKLY BRIEFING NEWSLETTER (www.parsonage.org) Designed with the busy pastor and church leader in mind, this weekly newsletter is compiled by our Pastoral Ministries staff and is available online or by e-mail. It provides the latest information on developments in Washington, DC, cultural patterns, trends in American churches and schools, court decisions, and much more. This resource provides excellent material for use in sermons, bulletins, letters, and discussions. Pastors and church leaders also find fascinating facts, insightful statistics, prayer concerns, and resource suggestions that will save them time and help them serve their congregations better. At present, over 24,000 ministers and church leaders receive the online newsletter.Periodicals
BOOK PUBLISHING (resources.family.org/) Focus on the Family partners with several Christian publishers to create and distribute products including character building fiction for children, marriage advice, parenting help, and inspirational books for men and women. More than half of these products are created by an in-house team of writers and editors, and are supported by contributions from talented authors. FILMS AND VIDEOS (resources.family.org/) Focus on the Family began its first film production in 1986 and has continued producing new programs that have been translated in over 20 languages. Focus on the Family continues to seek the widest possible audiences for its videos. Focus on the Family videos include marriage and parenting advice, worldview curricula, and animated and live action character building videos for children. All of our original videos are scripted and filmed with Christian audiences in mind, although they are often enjoyed by a broader audience.Family Resources
STRATEGIC ALLIANCE SERVICES Strategic Alliance Services exists to support the Chief Strategy Office and the rest of Focus's internal ministry areas by finding, evaluating, and developing working relationships with alliances that can help to expand and extend Focus' strategic impact to families around the world. CHRISTIAN WORLDVIEW MINISTRY (www.thetruthproject.org) At Focus, we believe that every aspect of our lives - the way we manage our families, carry out our work, enjoy our free time, and relate to others - stems from our understanding of who God is and who we are in Him. The goal of the Christian Worldview team is to awaken our constituents to God's Truth, character, design, and purpose for all of life by creating a curriculum for small group study, training facilitators, and providing support for those teaching these vital concepts and serving as impact partners in our society. RELATIONSHIP SERVICES Each week brings thousands of contacts, via email, letters and phone calls, each seeking a response to unique requests. This direct communication is a vital link to the people we desire to serve. We also moderate most of Focus on the Family' Forums and Blogs, which occasionally provides opportunities to reach out to this community as well. Those who contact us are treated with dignity, care, and expertise. The many inquiries for information, advice, and encouragement are fielded and supported by a well-trained staff of 73, predominantly with earned degrees. COUNSELING Many of those who come to us require specialized care. Focus on the Family (Focus) is increasingly called upon to assist those experiencing painful and often destructive situations. Potential suicides, cases of spouse abuse, and child molestation are not uncommon. These pleas receive a reply by phone on a one-to-one basis. Most contacts are prompted by our radio broadcasts, which touch off an avalanche of "pain mail" and cries for help. In addition to the radio broadcast, callers become aware of the counseling/consultation we offer through Focus websites, magazine articles, simulcasts and other ministry outreaches. Our staff of 16 state-licensed counselors, and 1 chaplain, respond to the critical letters and calls too complex for a mail response. Following the free consultation, callers are referred to counselors in their geographical area who have been approved through a screening process for our National Referral Network. Focus on the Family does not provide a categorical "endorsement" of therapists on the referral network. No charge is made for counselor consultation. FOCUS LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE (www.focusleadership.org) This specialized leadership training program, which was launched in September of 1995, is offered multiple times a year to selected young people who are typically enrolled at an accredited academic institution. As they participate in classroom sessions, individual research, and internships under the mentorship of specialists in their area of study, a unique emphasis is placed upon the integration of their foundational principles to their academic disciplines and their future careers. Significant components of the program include a community learning environment where mentoring and accountability are stressed. In developing this endeavor, Focus on the Family relied on the input of university leaders from over 110 colleges and universties, as well as leaders from the business and government arenas. Participants are also afforded opportunities to interact with renowned leaders and to complete an internship related to their future career field. "FOCUS ON THE FAMILY" NEWSPAPER COLUMN Each week millions of readers search for the answers to questions about family life. The "Focus on the Family" column features answers to family-related questions, fielded by Focus on the Family President Jim Daly and Psychologist Dr. Juli Slattery. The column appears weekly in over 150 newspapers. BENEVOLENCE Funding from our annual budget helps to provide tangible support to those in need, primarily through distribution of various resources by our Relationship Services, Counseling, Pastoral and Chaplaincy ministries. HOW TO DRUG PROOF YOUR KIDS - "DPYK" (www.drugproofyourkids.com) DPYK works together with parents, taking them through one of the best drug prevention curriculums around. You will learn why kids use drugs, strategies for communication, how to identify warning signs, tools to help your kids respond to peer pressure, how to deal with current drug use and more. Most importantly, you will learn how to strengthen relationships with your kids that act as a constant preventative against drug use. By putting it all into practice, you will be closer to saying "not my kid" with confidence. LOVE WON OUT CONFERENCES (www.lovewonout.com) The Love Won Out ministry provides Christ-centered, comprehensive conferences enlightening, empowering, and equipping families, church and youth leaders, educators, counselors, policy-makers, and the gay community on the truth about homosexuality and its impact on our culture. This ministry was transitioned to Exodus International during the fiscal year. We are standing with Exodus International as they continue to share this message as the organizer of Love Won Out conferences. PASTORAL MINISTRIES (www.parsonage.org) Relevant materials, referrals, and "hands-on" ministry aid the Pastoral Ministries department in facilitating the spiritual renewal of ministers and their families. Time, financial, and relational pressures that are unique to ministry in today's fast-paced culture are placing pastors' homes under attack as never before. As a means of providing insight and encouragement to counteract these destructive influences, several timely resources are offered. Among them are the quarterly Pastor to Pastor audio series; The Pastor's Weekly Briefing, an e-newsletter loaded with facts, trends, and current events affecting the family; Pastoral Events and Pastor and Spouse Retreats, held in strategic locations across the U.S. and Canada to encourage, inform, and support the local pastor and spouse. Disaster Relief efforts provide Focus on the Family resources to pastors and churches at a time of devastation to support and encourage those involved in a crisis such as the September 11 terror attack, tornadoes, hurricanes or earthquakes. This department has also spearheaded the effort to promote observance of Clergy Appreciation Month each October with materials translated into Spanish to reach the Hispanic community, as well. The In House Ministry of Concern provides support for Focus on the Family employees at times of death, illness, and other serious personal issues; the Pastoral Care Online Directory offers a list of care giving ministries, books, tapes, videos, and other resources; the Pastoral Care Line provides a listening ear, referrals, and advice to pastoral family members in crisis; and the Pastors Advocate Series of booklets help congregations better understand and care for their pastoral families.Personal Touch Ministries
PHYSICIANS RESOURCE COUNCIL Over thirty U.S. and Canadian physicians representing diverse medical specialties serve as volunteers on the Focus on the Family Physicians Resource Council (PRC). The PRC works closely with our Medical Review department staff, and functions in a supportive, advisory capacity by providing our ministry with expert counsel regarding medical and health-related issues that relate to our broadcasts, publications, films, and other media. SANCITY OF HUMAN LIFE (www.heartlink.org) Because the Sanctity of Human Life (SOHL) is one of the core commitments of Focus on the Family, the SOHL team promotes awareness of the value of each human life and equips its constituents to nurture and defend the sanctity of human life from conception to natural death. Our primary initiatives are: OPTION ULTRASOUND: Provides grants for ultrasound machines or sonography training to qualified Pregnancy Medical Clinics (PMCs) in high abortion communities, equipping them to offer limited obstetrical ultrasound services under the supervision of a licensed physician. I.M.P.A.C.T. Training: Offers strategic training seminars to help PMCs become Influential, Medical, Professional, Accountable, Culturally relevant and Trustworthy. Adoption & Orphan Care Initiative (www.icareaboutorphans.org): Collaborate with partners on worldwide adoption and orphan care awareness campaigns, and coordinates efforts with government, church and adoption agency leaders to help find permanent adoptive families for the 114,000 legal orphans waiting in foster care in the U.S. Focus also provides additional post-adoption support to families to include training Christian therapists to help adoptive families. BE A VOICE (www.beavoice.net): Provides specialized resources online to equip families, churches and organizations to be a voice for life and to make life-affirming decisions in their families' lives. STATE FAMILY POLICY COUNCILS (www.citizenlink.com/state-groups/) Since 1988, business and community leaders from across the nation have formed state-level organizations to invest in the future of America's families. Each Family Policy Council conducts policy analysis, promote responsible and informed citizenship, facilitates strategic leadership involvement, and influences public opinion. Many of these councils also perform community and statewide work to foster a movement to affirm families. These councils are independent entities with no corporate or financial relationship to each other or to Focus on the Family. However, they have a uniform purpose: serving as a voice for the family and assisting advocates for family ideals who aim to recapture the moral and intellectual high ground in the public arena. THE SHEPHERD'S COVENANT Pastors are increasingly facing a crisis of integrity, righteousness and credibility. Many need to regain their focus and to recommit themselves to a lifestyle pleasing to the Lord, their families and congregations. To that end we offer complimentary the Shepherd's Covenant, a simple commitment by spiritual leaders to aspire to a new level of holiness and accountability based on the acronym G.R.A.C.E. (Genuine accountability, Right relationships, A servant's heart, Constant Safeguards, Embracing God intimately). A weekly e-newsletter is included. WELCOME CENTER/BOOKSTORE/WHIT'S END (http://www.focusonthefamily.com/visitus/A000000482.cfm) Approximately 230,000 people visit Focus on the Family's Welcome Center every year, where they can explore our Ground level, which features a 10,000 square foot Bookstore and Gift Shop filled with relevant and compelling resources and wholesome entertainment; the Solid Grounds Coffee Shop; a G.

YOUTH OUTREACH (www.clubhousemagazine.com, www.clubhousejr.com, www.jellytelly.com, www.whitsend.org, www.pluggedin.com) The Youth Outreach department seeks to equip parents, youth leaders/ministers, and youth (ages 4-12) with the essential tools that will enable them to help youth understand, navigate, and impact the culture in which they live. We do this by helping parents and others shape the identity, foundations, and perspective with entertaining and Biblically-based content that can involve the whole family.Personal Touch Ministries
